About the Item
This statue came to us as part of a group of statues purchased by a European traveler taking the continental "tour" many did as a rite of passage in the late 19th century, bringing home with them items such as these from their stops in Greece, Italy, etc. This is a diminutive version of one of the world's best-known sculptures, Myron's "Discobolus" known to us through Roman copies. Stands around 10" tall. Great condition. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans

View AllWinged David (Bronze), ex. Daniel Glaser Estate (New Orleans)
By Michelangelo
Located in New Orleans, LA
A tabletop-sized solid bronze casting of Michelangelo's "Winged David", on a solid marble base. You can see his giant-killer sling "slung" over his shoulder. Fine detail. This came out of a collection of neoclassical grand tour souvenirs, owned by collector Daniel Glaser of New Orleans, Louisiana (from his estate). Back in the day, wealthy travelers in Europe often purchased sculptures and other mementos of the sites they visited. We have several other pieces from this collection in addition to this, including "Discobolus" and a fine gladiator with lance. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art...

Study of a Male Nude (Original Thomas Hart Benton, Signed & Authenticated)
By Thomas Hart Benton
Located in New Orleans, LA
A rare ORIGINAL and authenticated pen-and-ink drawing with a fine provenance, and a wonderful drawing at that, by legendary American Scene artist Thomas Hart Benton. Though we are most familiar with his WPA-era paintings of rural Midwestern scenes, his drawings are less familiar - but they dramatically demonstrate his superb draftsmanship. The work as framed measures 19.5" x 15.25"; unframed, the artwork measures 14.5" x 10.25". Fine condition. Comes with a copy of a certificate of authenticity: provenance: Savor Gallery, New York, NY; Parke-Bernet Galleries, New York, NY. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans
